Elmac Technologies’ Low Pressure Protection Equipment is designed to safeguard tanks against rupture or implosion while filling and/or emptying. The Pressure Vacuum Relief Valves (PVRV) restrict product loss and environmental discharges while also protecting tanks from thermal changes. It is crucial to have sufficient pressure protection to prevent catastrophic failure of tanks or vessels.
We are dedicated to creating Pressure Vacuum Relief Valves (PVRV) and other safety equipment that are at the forefront of providing ultimate protection in low-pressure process environments. Our skilled technical team collaborates closely with our global clientele to create tailored, cost-effective solutions that meet or exceed their safety and operational performance needs.
About pressure protection equipment from Elmac Technologies
We are committed to developing the world’s leading Pressure Vacuum Relief Valves (PVRV) and associated safety equipment that provide ultimate protection in low pressure process environments. Our experienced engineering team works closely with our global customers to design and tailor tailor-made, cost-effective solutions that meet or exceed their requirements in terms of both safety and operational performance benefits.
The filling and emptying cycles of tanks and vessels cause changes in liquid volume and vapor space, and this, along with fluctuating operating temperatures and pressures, results in the need for pressure relief equipment. Situations where a tank or vessel is vulnerable to engulfment by fire may require the rapid removal of large amounts of vapor to protect the tank and its surroundings. Safety devices, such as high-level alarms or control systems, can fail, leading to catastrophic failure of the tank. This can lead to serious injury, product loss and severe environmental damage. Accordingly, fail-safe devices such as: pressure/vacuum relief valves, emergency relief vents, and/or other venting devices such as: rupture discs should be mounted adjacent to flame arresters where they may be required.
